Jared Cooney Horvath

Jared Cooney Horvath is a neuroscientist and education expert known for his research on the cognitive abilities of different generations, particularly Generation Z. He recently gained attention for his alarming findings presented to the United States Senate, where he claimed that individuals born between 1997 and 2010 possess lower intelligence levels than previous generations. Horvath attributes this decline to excessive reliance on digital technology, which he argues has adversely affected young people's attention spans, problem-solving skills, and academic performance. His work emphasizes the need for urgent changes in educational policies to mitigate the negative impacts of technology on learning.
